# The GROWTH Marshal: A Dynamic Science Portal for Time-Domain Astronomy

## TL;DR

The GROWTH Marshal is a comprehensive, real-time science portal designed to coordinate, analyze, and manage time-domain astronomical observations and follow-ups across multiple telescopes and science programs.

## Contribution

It introduces a dynamic, collaborative platform that streamlines the management and analysis of transient astronomical data from discovery to publication.

## Key findings

- Serves 137 scientists and 67 telescopes
- Processes 10^5 nightly alerts from Zwicky Transient Facility
- Enables real-time filtering and follow-up coordination

## Abstract

We describe a dynamic science portal called the GROWTH Marshal that allows time-domain astronomers to define science programs, program filters to save sources from different discovery streams, co-ordinate follow-up with various robotic or classical telescopes, analyze the panchromatic follow-up data and generate summary tables for publication. The GROWTH marshal currently serves 137 scientists, 38 science programs and 67 telescopes. Every night, in real-time, several science programs apply various customized filters to the 10^5 nightly alerts from the Zwicky Transient Facility. Here, we describe the schematic and explain the functionality of the various components of this international collaborative platform.
